....isn't fall a little late to prepare for winter? LOL

In the eighteen years I spent in Northern Minnesota (Northome area) it seemed that I was always preparing for winter year round. I never went out with out bringing something home to burn. I had cleared enough wood from county ditches to become an Honorary Koochiching County Employee. That old house we had would barley slow the wind down as it passed though.

Re: wood splitter log table and engine guard

I built something similar many years ago for our splitter and it has saved me many a back pain.
Here is a picture of a tool that I never split wood without.

I bought a cheap but comfortable Harbor Freight screwdriver, cut the end off and rewelded at a little less than 90 degrees and cut grooves in the blade to give it more grip.
This allows you to put the blade of the screwdriver into the split right at the wedge as soon as it starts and pull on it to break the piece free,SAFELY.With dry wood, the splitter only has to travel a few inches before you can separate most pieces from the log, saving wear and tear and gobs of cycle time.
